The Hobby Collectors Dallas Card Show returns to Irving on Saturday, September 26, 2026, filling the DoubleTree by Hilton DFW Airport with more than 100 vendor tables of sports cards, Pokemon, and trading card games. Positioned right between Dallas and Fort Worth just south of the airport, this show is one of the easiest in the metroplex to reach from anywhere, and its free admission and all-day giveaways have made it a popular Saturday stop for collectors on both sides of the Trinity.
The vendor floor splits between sports and TCGs. Sports card dealers bring NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL inventory with plenty of Cowboys, Mavericks, Rangers, and Stars cards, ranging from vintage stars and graded rookies to modern autographs and low-numbered parallels. Soccer, UFC, and boxing cards appear at several tables. Pokemon vendors stock modern hits, vintage holos, PSA and CGC slabs, and sealed product, with Magic: The Gathering, One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Disney Lorcana filling out the TCG side. Funko Pops and memorabilia round out the room. Giveaways run all day long, so check in at the host table when you arrive.
The show runs from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The first ninety minutes are when the best showcase cards move, and the last hour is when dealers are most flexible on price.
Admission is free and parking at the hotel is free as well. No tickets are required, which makes this an easy show to bring the whole family to.
The DoubleTree by Hilton DFW Airport is located at 4441 West John Carpenter Freeway, Irving, TX 75063, right off Highway 114 near its interchange with Loop 12 and just minutes from DFW Airport. The hotel ballroom is a familiar card show venue with a restaurant and bar on site, and Las Colinas dining is a short drive away.
This show suits families, casual collectors, serious sports card buyers who want a large dealer count without an entry fee, and Pokemon collectors looking for solid mid-market inventory. Dealers looking to buy collections will find steady walk-in seller traffic, and first-timers will find the layout easy to navigate.
To get the most out of it, arrive at the 10:00 AM opening, bring cash for stronger negotiating, and carry a want list and trade binder. Walk the full floor before committing to a purchase, and bring cards to sell since many vendors are buying.

One practical note for out-of-town collectors: the DoubleTree's proximity to DFW Airport makes this one of the few shows in the region you can fly in for, hit for the day, and fly out of the same evening. Locals should plan for the Highway 114 traffic that builds around the airport on Saturday afternoons and consider arriving before the 10:00 AM opening to avoid it.
